The following document concerning Mary,Mother of Jesus contains little that is fundamentally new. It is rather for the most part
a synthesis of Mary s exalted roles as Coredemptrix, Mediatrix, and
Advocate as they are already contained in the sources of divine
revelation, Sacred Scripture and Apostolic Tradition, as interpreted
by the Magisterium (cf. Dei Verbum, n. 9,10), and as it is presently
understood and experienced in the dynamic ecclesial life of the
Living, Pondering, and Praying Church, the People of God.
It is true that in the divine drama of how God makes himself and
his will known to humanity, certain doctrinal truths are only more
fully penetrated after the Church has ages of human history in which
to ponder and reflect upon the divine seeds of these truths which are
contained in the Word of God, both written and handed down. If God
has reserved a greater and more complete understanding of certain
revealed seeds of faith regarding Mary, the Mother of Jesus, until our
own recent centuries, then such a greater understanding granted by
the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth, should not be met with a
potentially stagnant incredulity on this fact alone. Rather, it should
evoke a fresh appreciation for the ever-dynamic designs of God in
leading the pilgrim People of God towards their eternal home, and for
the Holy Spirit, who blows where he wills (cf. Jn. 3:8 ).
I believe such to be the case about the roles of Mary, Mother of
Jesus, as the Coredemptrix, Mediatrix, and Advocate for the People
of God. This in no way infers a new public revelation about the
Mother of Jesus; but rather a new and more developed penetration
into the already revealed truths about Mary and the intimate "union
of the mother with the Son in the work of salvation"
